The business process review of the six principal Service museums has been completed. The review 42WS confirmed the value of the museums and recommended their continued support by the MoD. The review also recommended a number of measures to improve communication between the museums and their relevant sponsor branch, to provide assurance of value for money and to facilitate longer-term planning. These will be taken forward by the Deputy Chief of the Defence Staff (Personnel) in conjunction with the three Service sponsor branches.
